A representative from the Northern Area Centre
Riding for the Disabled Association SA contacted me recently to thank our
department for the successful relocation of their horses to new paddocks. The
relocation was necessary because the paddock was required for storage of fill
from the Torrens to Torrens Project.

This is a terrific outcome and big thank you to
Desmond Khoo from the South Road Planning team and James Hohneck and Michael
Johnston from contracts management for their hard work, sensitivity and
diligence in minimising the disruption to the horses and riders.

Paperless Timetables

A
positive step toward paperless timetables with the installation of the kiosk
pictured below at Flinders Medical Centre. This is a significant
achievement in working toward our paperless timetable strategy and a great
service for the hospital’s 250,000 visitors per year.

Well
done to digital officer Scott Wagenfeller for his efforts in bringing
this together.

ARS Signage

This
week Bobbie-Jean Stevens from our communications team was at Adelaide Railway
Station to supervise the installation of some signage when she also helped
guide a person with vision impairment to their platform. A simple
act that would’ve meant a great deal to the customer.

Again,
we are looking at ways we can help improve our customers’ experience of our
public transport system, in this case providing a guide for people with
mobility scooters to calculate if their vehicle will safely fit onto a train.
Below is the signage in question.

MEDIA

Our
five Ministers get lots of media enquiries. Please make sure your general
manager signs off on any responses.
